We Are Off to the Land of Bedouin Carpets, Exotic Souks & the Sahara Desert

Posted by Angie Brown on 2nd Feb 2017

In late March Cultural Cloth will travel to Morocco where we plan to meet the artisans that we have corresponded with over the years and we have a long list of new artisans that we would like to meet who will be able to supply us with the handmade rugs you have been asking about. We especially like the Beni Ouarain and Bourcheroite.  The truth is, we like it all.  We hope to meet the women who weave our Flatweave Map Rugs.  We will travel from Minneapolis to Marrakech after a few days in the Medina of Marrakech we will motor to the High Atlas Mountains and the Sahara Desert.  We've hired a guide because we know where we want to go but we don't know how to get there and our guide advises we should ride in a 4-wheel drive.
